If you can text a customer, you can use SOFE. It's built for people who work with their hands, not behind a desk. Log a job in 10 seconds. See your day at a glance. Track a customer without a filing cabinet. There's no training, no manual, and no IT department required.
Yes — SOFE has a mobile app for iPhone and Android. Log a job, add a customer, or check your schedule between calls. Everything syncs instantly so nothing falls through the cracks whether you're at a job site, in your truck, or back home at the end of the day.
Most trades pros lose money on the jobs they forget to follow up on, the customers they don't call back, and the repeat work that goes to someone else. SOFE costs less than one missed job — and it's yours forever. No monthly fee eating into every call, no subscription you have to justify every year.
Nico texts you the job and you accept or pass. SOFE is what runs the business behind that text. Log the job, save the client's details, track the follow-up, and see your full schedule in one place. Nico fills your pipeline — SOFE makes sure nothing slips through once it does.
“Nico sent me 4 jobs my first week. I manage everything in SOFE. Best $199 I've spent on my business.”
“I used to lose track of half my customers. Now everything's in one place and I don't pay a subscription for it.”
“The Nico fees used to eat into every job. With SOFE it's half the cost. The system paid for itself in two weeks.”
